Glass processing equipment. Glass breakage (cullet) - types and description of glass breakage. Reception points in large cities of Russia

According to statistics, 20% of the total mass of pollution on our planet are glass products. All these facts indicate that glass recycling in Moscow or any other region is a necessary service.

If you use glass waste in your production and are interested in their constant supply, it is most reasonable to contact a large garbage collection company, such as Sanitarim LLC.

Moscow: glass recycling under the direction of responsible personnel

Our company has all the necessary equipment, technologies and knowledge that will allow us to carry out high-quality processing of absolutely any type of waste. We select glass waste, process it and offer it to those companies that are interested in this type of recyclable material. You can buy glass containers, broken glass, glass chips from us.

Particular attention is paid to the disposal of car glass, because it is created as a result of fixing glass on a special film, which makes it more durable and safer in use. In the workshops of the company, as a result of mechanical action, the glass is crushed into small pieces, after which manual sorting, expiration using a magnet and removal of the film base are carried out. Disposal of glass waste in this case takes place at a high quality and safety level.

Sanitarim company - glass recyclable materials in the desired volumes

We remove waste throughout Moscow and the Moscow region, we have many sorting points, special equipment and transport.

You just need to write an application on the website, indicating the desired amount of recyclable materials or discuss it with a consultant by phone. Your business will receive as many raw materials as necessary so that production does not stand idle, but makes a profit.

It is in our power to make sure that the recycled glass can be used for further production. Together, we are able to preserve the remaining natural resources for our descendants.

Every day a person uses glass containers, which must be disposed of after use. This procedure is necessary to protect environment and savings natural resources... Storing glass waste is unsafe and ineffective.

What kind of glass can be recycled?

The main types of recyclable glass waste:

  • glass containers - bottles and cans - they are handed over to special collection points, after which the containers are washed, treated with disinfectants and used again for their intended purpose;
  • cullet - broken containers.

Broken glass is classified by color: green (ЗС), colorless (BS), brown (КС), etc.

Why do you need to hand over glass for recycling?

Disposal of broken glass is necessary for a number of important reasons:

  • the material does not biodegrade - an ordinary glass bottle decomposes over a period of more than 1000 years, and if they are not recycled, our planet will be inundated with glass waste in a short period of time;
  • fragile broken glass is dangerous for people and animals;
  • by reusing glass containers, you can save exhaustible and non-renewable resources;
  • preservation of land plots that could become landfills for cullet;
  • recycling glass products is a waste-free production, thanks to which nature will not suffer from the negative impact industrial enterprises;
  • handing over glass containers to the collection points, you will receive money for this.

Recycling window glass, bottles, jars and other glass products saves natural resources, protects the environment and reduces the cost of manufacturing new glass products.

Still have questions? We will be happy to answer them.

A family of several people, along with juices, drinks and pickles, buys about 10 units of glass containers every month. And if cans are considered a necessary thing in the household, then most of the bottles are most often sent to trash can... But glass recycling allows you to make a lot of new useful things out of waste.

Jars and bottles can be used indefinitely, because glass is a material that is 100% recyclable. In our country, the mechanism for collecting used containers has been debugged in almost all settlements, but most ordinary citizens still send it to the landfill. Wouldn't it be better to be conscientious and send the glass for further processing? Moreover, such utilization, although it costs money, prevents the appearance of many tons of garbage.

Features of waste processing on the territory of Russia

Glass processing in Russia is on stream. According to research data, the annual collection of such waste is about 3.5 million tons. Collected containers are used in two ways:

Whole jars and bottles are washed, disinfected and reused;
- substandard is broken up and sent for further processing.

Even 5 years ago, 97% of all collected containers in Russia were reused and only 3% fell on cullet. But since 2012, technical regulations have banned the recycling of all glass packaging that came into contact with baby food, which significantly increased the share of such waste in the total mass of collected containers.

Broken glass processing is carried out in several stages:

Automatic sorting and shredding of recyclable materials;
- removal of metal inclusions (plugs, covers) using a magnet;
- adding raw materials (sand, soda and limestone) to glass chips to improve the properties of the finished product;
- glass melting in a special oven at a temperature of 1200–1500 ° C. It should be noted that broken glass melts at a lower temperature than the initial raw material, which significantly reduces the amount of energy costs;
- molding of new products;
- annealing of finished cans and bottles to increase the strength of the packaging;
- visual and technical quality control of glass containers.

It should be noted that in Russia the processing process is not limited to the production of new bottles and cans. In our country, decorative and heat-resistant dishes, as well as ceramic sanitary ware, water filters, construction, insulating, abrasive and other materials are produced from recycled materials.

What are the benefits of recycling used glass bottles?


Everyone knows that the continued use of garbage is good. But let's move away from the general language and look at the specific benefits of recycling glass waste.

  • Conservation of the environment. The production of glass requires sand, which is mined in quarries. To do this, huge holes are dug on the surface of the earth, and sometimes forest plantations are cut down to clear the working site. After developing one quarry, people begin to destroy nature in another place. Many of us feel regret at the sight of cut trees and abandoned quarries, but ... they continue to throw bottles in the trash can.
  • Conservation of natural resources. The main components of glass are sand, limestone and soda ash. On this moment people do not lack these types of raw materials, but everything has an end. In concrete terms, one ton of recycled glass saves at least 500 kg of sand, 200 kg of limestone and 150 kg of soda.
  • Conservation of energy resources. Primary glass production itself is energy-intensive. But in addition to this, energy is spent on the extraction of minerals and the disposal of already used containers. Scientists have calculated that only 2 recycled bottles release enough energy to boil 1 teapot of water.
  • Reducing the area of ​​solid waste landfills. The time of glass decomposition is about 1000 years, that is, each existing dump will be inherited by another 12-15 generations of people. But this is half the problem, because after filling and closing some landfills, more and more landfills have to be opened. Recycling glass, meanwhile, significantly reduces waste and saves about 10,000 hectares of land annually.

Problems of processing glass containers

Most Russian citizens are in no hurry to hand over cans and bottles. Some consider this occupation shameful, because most often they are rented out by vagabonds and the poor. Others do not even think about the problem of environmental pollution and throw bottles with other household waste.

Show conscientiousness and at least in your home organize a separate waste collection, because glass is a rather profitable resource: for one standard bottle at the reception point you will receive about two rubles, for a non-standard product - from 20 to 80 kopecks. Let you not enrich yourself, but make your contribution to the preservation of the main wealth - the pristine nature!

Glassware and shards can be stored for centuries, cluttering the planet, and with rational waste management, they can repeatedly serve as raw materials for new useful products. Even a small glass processing plant can save a lot of natural resources, benefit the environment and become a source of stable income.

Glass is made from natural raw materials, therefore, even in the form of waste, it does not pose a great threat to the environment. It does not emit toxic substances, but it also does not lend itself to natural decomposition.

Domestic and foreign experience

In Western countries, the issue of recycling valuable waste is approached with great responsibility; cullet recycling is already a well-established business. Waste management is regulated at the legislative level, supported by state subsidies, and violation of the rules threatens administrative penalty in the form of penalties.

One of the prerequisites effective solution recycling is the separate collection of waste:

  • More than 16 thousand tons of glass containers are processed in Great Britain every year. The problem of the need to collect recyclable materials is widely covered in the press, interschool competitions are organized, and bonuses are paid.
  • In Germany, companies that collect glass containers supply refined and sorted material to glass processing plants. To distribute the fragments by color, automated optoelectronic systems are used - such equipment for recycling glass waste allows you to speed up the sorting process and get high quality raw materials, and, therefore, great profit for the business.
  • In Hungary for the collection of those who served glass bottles and other products, stationary containers have been installed, and travel to business centers and the residential sector is also practiced.

Residents of Russia are not yet ready to follow foreign experience and are clearly reluctant to separate waste collection, therefore glass recycling in Russia is just beginning to gain momentum. As a matter of fact, our citizens have not yet been given such opportunities - there are very few specially equipped places for separate collection of garbage. Therefore, at the moment, glass processing as a business will be most profitable when organizing collection points for glass containers.

Recycling of glass containers in Russia is an opportunity to reduce the disposal of glass to landfills, save resources and electricity, the consumption of which is much higher in the production of glass from a zero cycle.

What glass is to be processed

The glass container plant accepts window glass units, various interior items, dishes and more. There are some types of glass that cannot be reused - these are mirrors, triplex, products where reinforcing mesh is used, refractory raw materials.

Already at the initial stage, it is important to sort, since there is a state standard for glass breakage, according to which this raw material is divided into two grades:

  • I grade - clean waste without impurities, the size of which is 10 - 50 mm
  • Grade II - cullet of irregular size, in which an insignificant content of foreign organic impurities, clay and sand is allowed.

For more effective use raw materials will also need to be sorted by color. Mixed raw materials are the cheapest commodity on the market, and recycled materials are of limited use. Abroad in recent times equipment for processing glass containers includes sorting line, which successfully replaces manual labor.

Processing plant equipment

Glass processing is a business that is built on a very cheap raw material base, but requires investments in technological equipment. For the minimum processing of cullet necessary for its sale to factories or for performing subsequent technological operations in order to obtain a finished product, complex equipment for processing glass waste is used, which includes:

  1. Loading hopper, which receives glass containers.
  2. The vibrating feeder with motor ensures a continuous flow of cullet.
  3. Conveyor belt with a protective flap, along which the raw material is transported for sorting.
  4. The sorting conveyor directs the entire glass stream into the washing drum. At this stage, there is a manual removal of foreign objects.
  5. The washing drum performs hydrotreating of raw materials and their division into fractions, according to size.
  6. The inertial screen sieves out large elements to be crushed.

This is the minimum equipment for recycling glass waste. The line can be modified by adding another conveyor, which will redirect the coarse feed for additional grinding. Another very useful piece of equipment is the vortex magnet, whose job it is to weed out the aluminum elements that are often found in broken glass.

Relevance of glass processing in Russia

Despite the large reserves of raw materials, the development of glass processing in Russia is a very urgent task today. On average, the inhabitants of our country throw out 1.2 million tons of unnecessary glass containers annually. No more than 35% of this raw material is processed for processing. That is why glass processing in Russia needs government support and the provision of an informative base regarding the relevance and benefits of collecting cullet.

Even without precise mathematical calculations, one can imagine how much the amount of unused waste can increase, if already today we do not take drastic measures to solve this problem.

The glass waste business can become not only a profitable business, but also the salvation of the ecological component of our country. At least one glass processing plant in each locality can significantly improve the current situation and benefit for itself and the environment from free raw materials, which are currently wasted aimlessly in landfills.
